Amsterdam - Ben Sorensen's 60 Second Review

REVIEW:

Amsterdam - one of the most fun places on earth, and very bohemian in the 1930’s where this movie is set.

3 friends with an unbreakable Bond are the focus of the film, 2 of which are witnesses to a murder and find themselves labeled as suspects all while uncovering a larger than life and all round crazy plot - one of the biggest in American history.

Bring your sunglasses for this on as it’s filled with dazzling stars and a busy storyline - but somehow the parts are greater than their sum.

Good movie, love the cars, overall just not as amazing as I thought it would be.
